Vintage crockery Afternoon Teas is rarely used these days, but is exactly what Apley Farm Shop staff lay tables with for Valentine’s Day. This year, teas are available Saturday & Sunday 13 & 14 February in the Creamery Cafe, the quieter Corn Loft Conference Room & even the Old Dairy – the courtyard’s beautiful central building. Valentine’s lunches in the Creamery Cafe are only available on Sunday 14 February. Call 01952 730 345 to book or email enquiries@apleyfarmshop.co.uk.

If you’re popping in this weekend, Dish of the Week is Chicken breast with saute savoy cabbage, smoked bacon & mushroom tarragon sauce & Julie’s Cake of the Week are peanut butter squares – yumm ! If you are after smaller portions, just ask for the midweek ‘£12 meal for two‘ offer.

Apley Cookery Club with Gilly Clayton is tomorrow Sat 6 Feb in the Conference Room, 10:30-12:30pm & Tuesday 9 February is Shrove Tuesday. We have all you need in the farm shop to make yours at home or enjoy them in our Creamery Cafe – they’ll be the menu for sure !
